LIVE from the Spark Your Life Convention

By , SparkPeople Blogger
Greetings, everyone! I'm blogging LIVE from the Northern Kentucky Convention Center, known today as the site of the Spark Your Life Convention!

So far, it has been a pretty great day! I got here really early to deliver the mini muffins for Chef Meg's cooking demonstration.

Then I headed to the registration table to help Tanya check people in. It was SO much fun to actually put names and faces to usernames!

I've spent much of the morning meeting members, watching incredibly inspiration presentations from SparkGuy and others, and basically just moving around nonstop.

I was a bit nervous to introduce Chef Meg, but I knew the audience was full of friendly faces.





This convention has been awesome so far, and it's only half over. A big shoutout to our sponsors Fit & Fresh and Bell Fit, who've been a great help with the convention. We've also great some really neat prizes--and snacks!


Mary (auntyemm) has lost more than 100 pounds. She brought her old skirt to show off!


Before they participated in the Member Success Story panel, BOBBYD31 and MIAMIA7 met SparkGuy!


~INDYGIRL, who was part of the Success Story panel, offered great advice: "If you get a traffic ticket, you don't go out and break every traffic law for the rest of the day. So if you eat a slice of pizza, you don't need to go out and eat an entire pizza."


I got to meet Nancy for the first time!


Our successful member panel: KSIGMA1222, BOBBYD31, MIAMIA7, SHEENADEE, BLAZEGRRL, and ~INDYGIRL.


A big winner on the SparkPoints Wheel! Thanks to Fit & Fresh.

Well, I'm off to listen to Nancy's talk on "10 Lessons from My Journey to Yours." See you all soon, with a full wrap-up of the convention--and the 5K that many SparkPeople members and employees (myself included) are running/walking in tomorrow morning!
